The griping began as soon as the deal was announced Tuesday. The Orlando Magic traded Serge Ibaka to Toronto for Terrence Ross and a crummy draft pick.
Exit polls showed 3 percent of fans liked the deal and 89 percent think it’s the sixth sign of the apocalypse. The rest are still just grateful the Magic aren’t the New York Knicks.
No, Darrell Armstrong hasn’t shown up courtside and started berating Magic owner Rich DeVos for crimes against basketball. But an eruption like the one former Knicks’ star Charles Oakley staged last week at Madison Square Garden is warranted.
